1 review for Sheraton Great Valley Hotel
FTR, huh? well I can't say I am surprised. As hotels go, this place is really nothing special. I stay here when I am in town on business solely to rack up the points. The rooms are average, the bar is average. the restaurant looks too out-dated to even consider. and the closest attraction to the place is the Outback and Home Depot, both across the parking lot/street.
yeah, pretty whatev, if you ask me.
So I write this review only because I have seen so many hotels freak out when something goes awry - and this place didn't.
philly got a nutty storm Tuesday night, knocking down trees, power lines, and ultimately killing the power to this hotel (but stangely, thankfully not to the Outback). And by losing power, I mean - gone, nothing but flood lights, and from 9pm until roughly 10 the next morning.
But when other hotels would have freaked - these guys were calm, collected, and took care of their guests. They opened the bar for free. They gave out tons of water. And for your romantic evening alone in your dark room - a glow stick right out of a Rave. Next morning, they brought in breakfast for everyone as well.
OK, it sucked not having an iron, or an alarm clock, or a TV - but I survived - and no one seemed to get upset. And really, they could have just thrown up their arms and said 'sorry, not our fault' - but they didn't - and for that they get 3.5 stars.
And they get another half a star for the old guy sitting at the bar, in the dark who tried to pick up my friend by telling her that Tuesday nights tend to have swingers frequent the hotel bar with their 'bosoms all hanging out' then asking if she came there often.

History
Established in 1990
Built in 1715, the original White Horse Tavern of East Whiteland was one of the first licensed public houses is America. As strong liquors were thought to be "the best antidote against any diseases indigenous to the new country," the White Horse quickly earned its popularity..
Stage wagon travel began in earnest, and the roads were slowly widened and improved.
The spirit of this era is brought to life once again. The excellent service that has been the standard in these businesses has continued for nearly three centuries; the White Horse is following in this tradition. These historic rooms have been carefully restored to exhibit the same warmth and welcome of bygone days. The food and drink are still plentiful, so relax and enjoy the White Horse while becoming a part of its ongoing history
Several spirits have been known to visit the White Horse after all these years - so if you see something strange, its just an old spirit who's come back to enjoy the old world charm.
